Ob deseti obletnici delovanja umetniške skupine KOLEKTIVA (Vesna Bukovec, Lada Cerar, Metka Zupanič) avtorice v ptujski Miheličevi galeriji pripravljajo prvo pregledno razstavo skupnih projektov.
Za njihovo delo je značilno raziskovanje različnih aspektov komunikacije, medosebnih odnosov in vsakdanjega življenja. V projektih združujejo zanimanje za intimne zgodbe posameznikov, kar je po eni strani blizu pripovedovanju zgodb (”storytelling”), po drugi strani pa se spogledujejo z voajerstvom. Kot skupina se odzivajo na “trenutne situacije”, kar pomeni, da je v izhodišču njihovih projektov odziv na okolico, v kateri se znajdejo. Umetnice večkrat sodelujejo z različno publiko. Posameznike, mimoidoče ali določene interesne skupine povabijo k sodelovanju in jih vključijo v svoje projekte kot izvor ali enakovredne partnerje. Avtorice dojemajo ustvarjalni proces kot preplet domišljije, pogajanj, izmenjave in sodelovanja. V okviru razstave v Miheličevi galeriji bodo avtorice k sodelovanju povabile tudi prebivalce Ptuja, da aktivno sodelujejo pri ustvarjanju alternativnega zemljevida svojega mesta.
Vesna Bukovec, Lada Cerar in Metka Zupanič so v desetih letih skupnega delovanja pripravile več samostojnih razstav in sodelovale na mnogih mednarodnih skupinskih razstavah v Atenah, Nottinghamu, Ljubljani, Celju, Mariboru, Zagrebu, Sarajevu, na Dunaju, v Gradcu, Berlinu, Varšavi, Rimu, Veroni in Benetkah. Z različnimi projekti v okviru platforme Special Place in the City (Posebni prostori v mestu) so se zapisale med sodobne umetnice, ki utirajo pot novim likovnim praksam in v svoje delo uvajajo postopke izmenjav in sodelovanja. Predvsem ta projekt, ki letos teče že osmo leto zapored, jim je omogočil preboj na mednarodno likovno sceno.
Vse tri umetnice delujejo tudi kot uspešne samostojne avtorice. Metka Zupanič in Vesna Bukovec v sodelovanju z galerijo Photon zadnja leta pripravljata projekcije in razstave sodobne mednarodne video umetnosti.

After ten years of working together in an art group KOLEKTIVA, artists Vesna Bukovec, Metka Zupanič and Lada Cerar present their first mid-career retrospective.
In their collective work they research various aspects of communication, inter-personal relationships, and everyday life. In their projects they search for all kinds of personal stories and are interested in both storytelling and voyeurism at the same time. As a group they create projects in response to given situations.
They frequently collaborate with the public. They invite different individuals, passersby or specially targeted groups to collaborate and they include them in their projects as a source or co-authors of the work. The artists understand the process of art making as a mixture of imagination, negotiation, exchange and cooperation.
In ten years of collaboration KOLEKTIVA have presented their works in several solo exhibitions and participated in significant international group shows in Slovenia and Europe. KOLEKTIVA is mostly known for different projects within their platform Special Place in the City for which they gain international recognition.
Besides working in KOLEKTIVA all three authors work as successful solo artists. Metka Zupanič and Vesna Bukovec also curate video screenings and exhibitions of international contemporary video art in collaboration with the Photon Gallery.

About the selection
Contemporary art scene (especially video art) in Bosnia & Herzegovina is very interesting because it presents and deals with some issues, problems and relations between the past - in terms of politics, ideology and history - and nowadays, the present.
NamaTRE.ba project is video project which is a kind of “other” independent video art scene inside Bosnia & Herzegovina, which represents (un)institutional art. NamaTRE.ba is focused on experimental film, video, performance and new media art. Some earlier (few years ago) presentations and screenings of Bosnia & Herzegovina video art was represented by three different varieties: firstly, there were works that refer to the recent war and posttraumatic elements in society, next, there were works that refer to some universal problems and ideas of media and art, and finally, there were works that refer to questions of personal and social identity. This selection (compilation) of video art which I can call “a newer one” will be a part of this year namaTRE.ba project. In a recent period (last two years) artist and film/video makers are constantly trying to “break a rule” and their create works which are no more have references on war of 90’s, posttraumatic elements in society and transitional process from socialistic Yugoslavia to neo liberal capitalism of upcoming EU. In some way younger and middle age artists nowadays are “cleaned” from “90’s art” and “2000 arts” because they are trying to reflect their art to some personal problems and local/global problems of human kind and human worldwide society. Names of all videos presented here: Quisling / Traces of everyday life’s discourse, through fragments of ritual objects / 12 windows / Ten minutes for the existence of art / Trio; and narrative of all videos (if there is a narrative at all?) had kind of catharsis from key words like: war, trauma, guilty, terror and so on…. Because all of this, paradoxically, we can mention that upcoming future on B&H art and B&H society can’t be optimistic and bright, until we again and again made a works which use thematically and by narrative that “fluent” key words that I mention before.

O izboru
Po predstavitvi prvega dela videov iz Bosne in Hercegovine v letu 2010, tokrat predstavljamo pet videov, ki so nadaljevanje projekta namaTRE.ba. Če so pretekla dela obravnavala in predstavljala različna vprašanja, probleme in odnose povezane s preteklostjo – v smislu politike, ideologije in zgodovine, bodo tokrat predstavljena dela drugačna – usmerjena v prihodnost.
namaTRE.ba je video projekt, ki deluje na neodvisni sceni video umetnosti znotraj Bosne in Hercegovine. Osredotoča se na eksperimentalni film, video in novo medijske umetnosti. V okviru razstav prejšnjih let je obravnaval teme, ki so tesno povezane z okoljem. Predstavljena so bila dela, ki obravnavajo nedavno vojno in post-travmatične elemente v družbi, dela, ki se ukvarjajo s splošnimi problemi in idejami v okviru medija in umetnosti, dela, ki raziskujejo vprašanja osebne in socialne identitete.
Izbor, ki ga bomo predstavili na video večeru predstavlja del letošnje edicije festivala namaTRE.ba, in se osredotoča predvsem na dejstvo, da avtorji poskušajo “prelomiti pravila” in se zavestno odmakniti od travm nedavne zgodovine. Kot pravi kustos Igor Bošnjak, so zlasti mlajši avtorji nekako “očiščeni” umetnosti 90. let, vseh travm vezanih na njihovo okolje, občutkov krivde. Navdih jemljejo iz vsakodnevnega življenja in problemov, ki jih obdajajo, predvsem pa iz globalnih problemov, ki so skupni vsem nam.

About FemLink
In 2005, two artists, C.M. Judge (US) and Véronique Sapin (FR) decided to create common art-works which can include women-artists from everywhere in the world. Both, they had the same questions about how they can help women artists who live outside Europe and USA and who have difficulties to create, promote, distribute, exhibit and screen their art work.
They launched FemLink just with this utopian idea to build a link throughout the world between women video artists and their work.
The principle is simple: one artist / one country create a short video for FemLink (2 min. maximum) around a common topic.
The Video-Collages allready created are :
- FRAGILITY (32 artists - 32 videos - 60 min);
- RESISTANCE (32 artists - 32 videos - 57 min);
- PREOCCUPATION (34 videos, 34 artists 60 min);
- MALE (32 videos - 32 artists - 58 min),
The current topics are: WONDER, AGGRESSION, VITAL

O FemLink
Leta 2005 sta umetnici C.M. Judge (ZDA) in Véronique Sapin (Francija) ustanovili mednarodno umetniško organizacijo FemLink, ki vključuje umetnice iz vsega sveta. Namen organizacije je pomagati umetnicam, ki ne živijo v Evropi ali ZDA, in ki imajo težje razmere za ustvarjanje in nimajo dostopa do primerne promocije in distribucije ter težje razstavljajo in predstavljajo svoja dela.
FemLink sta zagnali z utopično idejo, da se po vsem svetu spletejo povezave med videoumetnicami in njihovimi deli.
Princip je preprost: ena umetnica iz vsake države za FemLink ustvari kratek video (dolg največ 2 min.) na skupno temo.
Že realizirani videokolaži:
- KRHKOST (32 umetnic - 32 videov - 60 min);
- ODPOR (32 umetnic - 32 videov - 57 min);
- PREDSODEK (34 umetnic - 34 videov - 60 min);
- MOŠKI (32 umetnic - 32 videov - 58 min)
Teme, ki so še odprte: ČUDEŽ, AGRESIJA, VITALNO
